Epic Laziness

Release Epic Laziness (2 Viewers) v0.4.25

Shaman Epic 1.0. In City of Mist trying to combine the elements:

Edit after a few tries I was able to get it to go back and start at Dire Wolf step. The first few times, it ignored me and skipped back to step 85. I eventually got it to work by going back many, many steps and it locked on getting the pelt.

Just did the Rogue 1.5 pre-quest with a 100 Heroic toon. Took less than an hour. Only hang ups were he would not hand in the Gold Leaf Urn to Dealer Maeline and the mesh would not get me into Tenebrous Mountains. No big deal I just manually ran him. Awesome Lua for sure. My new favorite by far
 
Noticed issues:

1) When an EasyFind (I assume) command is executed, it will only execute once. If the command for some reason doesn't go through (latency issue or any other), it will not attempt to refire the command. I have had this issue running from Dranik's scar to City of Dranik, Guild Lobby to Guild Hall, Crescent Reach to Goru`Kar. It doesn't seem to be zone specific. It just stands there until I manually execute a /travelto command.

2) As mentioned above, people should be warned about having all xtargets set to autohater, or the Lua could be coded to back up the xtarget window via save, then load autohater with /xtarget load auto

3) During the Bard 1.5, when killing Dragorns for Dragorn Blood, it will lock on to the dragorn refugee quest mobs and refuse to retarget. There is also an issue where the Lua will target the mobs out of line of sight and 400+ units away, turn attack on and not be able to travel to the target.

These are things I have noticed so far. I made another 2 groups for raids with the free heroics (so they don't have epics yet), so I will let you know how the rest of these go as I go.

Same, 1.5 done in about an hour. No issue with Gold leaf urn for me, but I did stop at the Tenebrous, as well as the step after that which is to Katta.
 
SK 1.5 Pre-Quest

Would not nav to Captain Varns in Dulaks. Ran him manually there.
Now I'm in Plane of Hate and neither of the named are up. Window says Searching for PH for

Mistress of Malevolence and Overlord R`Gahbsa​

but when the PH are up he doesn't target them. I'm targeting them myself
 
Rogue 1.5 Pre-Quest said it completed but I wasn't able to spawn Stanos Herkanor to start 1.5. So I went back to final guy of pre-1.5 (a shady Highpass Citizen) and he said this: 1712162519825.png
 
Great job on this. Just completed the rogue pre-1.5. Simple enough!
Testing it on bst / sha / bard now. A few hangups with Nav, but likely on my end.
 
Ideas:

1) Allow for restart if something major goes wrong. Iv'e buggered up the Shaman quest by not getting one of the required kets and I can't back up to do it. Everytime I do it skips over back to the key being needed.
2) Allow me to back up to save points.
3) Let me name a save point so I can reference the quest online and match things up if something goes tits up.
4) Auto "yes" on no drop loot. I was running 4 at once and I think I missed a loot of the Shaman key


Loving this by the way.
 
SK Epic 1.5 - during the combine step, I get a crash with the following:
1712167859593.png
 
bard epic 1.5 prequest im having to nav manually and attack the heralds and for some reason also setting the herald heads to leave on corpse
 
bard epic 1.5 prequest im having to nav manually and attack the heralds and for some reason also setting the herald heads to leave on corpse
Same issue, stopped nav to Heralds to fight them. Using RGMerc Lua. Also had to manually loot the heads, but wanted to bring up another issue, my bags got full (yes I was unprepared) from all the stupid holgresh and giant and panther trash loot, so I did not loot the Sealed letter from Cristoc. killed Cristoc and went off running to next step. I liked the little back arrow in steps.
I'd like to suggest that the IMgui window look a bit more like the Quest window where I can see the steps and what I need to loot from the mob, so I know I must have room for 1,2,3, etc items from the mob we just killed and I can ignore all else from trash mobs. If color such as green for step complete can be added, that would rock.
This is a great Lua, thank you !
 
Hi, I am attempting shaman 1.0
The Lua starts, and my character starts to move, then he just stops.

Look amazing, always happy to see a new exciting project. I'm probably going to hold off for now, but this is definitely something that I'd be interested in when it's a little more polished. Very cool!
 
Bard Pre 1.5

I'm doing this solo, so there can be no campfire.

This is an issue with RGMercs Lua not Epic Laziness. If you continue to have this issue I would post in the rgmercs thread, or contact Derple in the discord for any questions about this.

For the pathing to Captain Varns: Have you updated to the latest navmeshes? I had to make some edits to the navmesh in a few zones to handle some of the pathing. Everything I've changed so far should be upgradeable via the MeshUpdater.exe map.

I will double check the Mistress/Overlord PH portion.
 
how do you bring the window back up? seems to have disappeared
If the window has disappeared the script should be not running. Reload it with /Lua run epiclaziness. if this does not work then do

/Lua stop epiclaziness and then /Lua run epiclaziness
 
My Rogue completed pre 1.5 with no issues (other than the noted path issue to Katta) but now I cannot select anything else

There seems to ben issue with the Give function, I will have this fixed shortly. As for the grimling -> tenebrous zone connection. The location in easyfind for the zoneline is below the ground. I have submitted a pull request to brainiac to correct this.

only real issue i have is in kael drakkel the toon getting stuck on the steps and edges

Shorter races (or shrunken characters) will sometimes run into issues like this. For any travel heavy script I would advise telling whatever automation you are using to not use shrink. And if you are a shorter race I would strongly suggest making use of MQ2AutoSize

- shm epic 2.0
- step 35
- shaman zones in and it ends.

Had the NPC name on step 37 in the wrong field. This will be corrected in the next release.
 
Bard pre 1.5 done. very nice. Upon every fight for mobs along the way, Lua would not pick up.
 
Bard pre 1.5 done perfectly.
Shm 1.0 character wont move ( ive attached screen shots in previous post)

Dranik's Scar is also giving me issues with a couple classes.

the strange behavior i have seen in that zone:
- Toon runs a step, then stops.
- stand still, with Easyfind window open (to lets say Nobles Causeway), but they dont run to it
- even stranger, is if I hit the pause button, (in Draniks scar) it begins to run to the next zone again.
 
Noticed issues:

1) When an EasyFind (I assume) command is executed, it will only execute once. If the command for some reason doesn't go through (latency issue or any other), it will not attempt to refire the command. I have had this issue running from Dranik's scar to City of Dranik, Guild Lobby to Guild Hall, Crescent Reach to Goru`Kar. It doesn't seem to be zone specific. It just stands there until I manually execute a /travelto command.

1. Most likely an issue with the script becoming stuck with MQ2Nav navigation paused. I have added checks to look for this, and hopefully this should be functioning in the next release

2. I am implementing a fix to check that something on the xtarget list is actually an autohater, rather than simply checking if there is anything on the xtarget list at all.

3. How long was it stuck on a single refugee? It should fail to hit it (either with a song, or with melee) 10 times, and then add it to a list of bad IDs then move on to the next. The area that has the refugees has several there, so it does take it a couple of minutes to move through each mob and add them to a list of mobs it can not interact with. But it should not become permenantly stuck here.

Beast 1.5 prequest step 19.... moves on with only looting 1 of 2 needed gem of the void
 
I can confirm Bard 1.5 gets stuck on refugee and does not change target.
